I forgot to add "doesn't work on anything but 1.08" to the bullet points. I'll clarify the issues.

OS will give us

  • Smaller file sizes.
  • Delta UI.
  • 1.08 only.

We still have these issues with OS

  • Maps depend on two shared maps and and a dll. As Dennis stated, that will put off potential players.
  • OS has not been extensively tested, and jcap's thread has shown a few cases of OS crashing the game.
  • OS is incompatible with Xfire and other OS apps (e.g. bloom) unless extra modifications to OS are made.
  • 1.08 only.
  • We don't need it.

Why is OS 1.08 only anyway?

Sorry, I saw "Version Changer" next to "Failure" a few times in the other thread and didn't notice that they got resolved.

I wanted to just say "we don't know if we need it so we'll decide on it later" but everyone else felt pressured.
